I admire you from afar
You've changed the way I see
I used to think that I

Should make you be like me
But after this short time
Watching what you do

I realise that I
Should strive to be like you


Whenever I am near you
I tread so awkwardly
Afraid someone may steal you

I guard you jealously

Then sing the world your praises

Let everybody know
That I just saw the future
A place I want to go


I admire you from afar
You've changed the way I see

I used to think that I
Should make you be like me
But after this short time

Watching what you do
I realise that I
Should strive to be like you


I hear you when you're talking
Untouched simplicity

Alive with expectations
In search of what might be


I admire you from afar
You've changed the way I see
I used to think that I

Should make you be like me
But after this short time
Watching what you do

I realise that I
Should strive to be like you


Then sing the world your praises
Let everybody know
That I just saw the future

A place I want to go

I hear you when you're talking

Untouched simplicity
Alive with expectations
In search of what might be


Then sing the world your praises
Let everybody know

That I just saw the future
A place I want to go


I hear you when you're talking
Untouched simplicity
Alive with expectations

In search of what might be

Then sing the world your praises

Let everybody know
That I just saw the future
A place I want to go
